HFC Dormitory
Oh Yeonseo’s house —
“Today, right?”
“Yeah. They said they’d pick you up from there at 9.”
In the living room, Oh Yeonseo and Han Chaewon were chatting.
“It’ll… be okay, right?”
Han Chaewon knew full well how harsh the HFC penalties were. The fact that they’d allowed a man like Na Woojin as her partner made it clear the church was up to something shady.
“I looked into other routes, and the arena’s pretty unique. They say it sucks in yin energy just like a gate, and you can use hunter skills too.”
Han Chaewon was hearing about the arena for the first time and looked shocked. Oh Yeonseo explained in detail, saying she’d only learned about it recently.
“Nayeong’s still new to B-rank, so she might get pushed around, but Woojin’s different. He’s got skills only he can use, and four spirits on his side—what’s there to worry about?”
“It’s the church running it that bothers me. They’ve probably rigged the arena to their tastes. Who knows what’ll happen inside.”
“A regular hunter, sure, but Woojin’s on another level. He’s the guy we chose. Just wait without worrying.”
“Chose? When did I—?”
“What’re you talking about after drooling over him like that? You were just some girl crushing on a guy who meant nothing to you?”
“No… that’s…”
Oh Yeonseo’s words hit right on the mark, leaving her speechless. Denying it would make her look like a slut, but admitting it outright felt too embarrassing.
“Don’t be shy. You’re drawn to Woojin’s body just like me. We’re not at the ‘love’ stage yet, so let’s start with the physical side. A guy like Woojin? Even fuck buddies would be great.”
Her best friend’s bold words made her face flush red, but honestly, Han Chaewon thought the same.
“Winning’s a given, but I hope they come back quick. It’s my turn next.”
“Your turn…?”
“Yeah. Apparently he did it with Nayeong. So I told him to come straight over after the match.”
Oh Yeonseo proudly shared what Na Woojin had told her. Han Chaewon’s face turned red at the thought of him having sex in the arena to awaken for the match.
“How does he even think of that…?”
“It’s Woojin, so he can. Nayeong saying okay and even giving up her virginity? She’s impressive. Thanks to her, I get to do it too. All good.”
“You really want to do that?”
“Yeah. It’s gotta feel way better than just sucking it. I’m really looking forward to it.”
Han Chaewon had known Oh Yeonseo for so long that she could tell it was sincere. Her best friend was genuinely excited about sex with that man.
Of course, she felt the same.
Exactly at 9, a black van pulled up in front of the one-room building. Tinted like a celebrity vehicle, nothing inside was visible.
The promoter got out, smiled, and opened the door.
“Right on time. Hop in.”
The interior was ordinary except for the partition between the driver’s seat and the back. Once the promoter closed the door, it felt like being sealed inside. No view of the outside.
“Why go to such lengths to hide where we’re going?”
Nayeong whispered just loud enough for me to hear.
“Beats me.”
Soon after the car started moving, a weird energy seeped up from below. Something in the air was spreading around us.
｢Something unpleasant’s coming in. Want me to get rid of it?｣
Sylph spoke in a displeased tone.
‘What is it?’
｢Air that makes you sleepy. Feels like gate energy.｣
It reminded me of Oh Yeonseo’s Breath of Hypnos. The church must be using something similar to keep us from figuring out the route while we slept.
Nayeong was already out cold. She’d taken my dick several times that afternoon, and now this weird air? Straight knockout.
No sounds from the driver’s seat—probably soundproofed—and no outside view. They’d prepared thoroughly. I considered just sleeping, but who knew what they might pull midway, so I stayed awake.
‘Pretend I’m asleep, so please remove this.’
｢Got it.｣
The dizziness vanished soon after. I kept my eyes shut, pretending to sleep, since I couldn’t check by opening the door. It stayed shut until we arrived somewhere.
“We’re here. You must be tired.”
The promoter opened the door with a straight face. Must be part of the job requirements.
Underground parking, completely enclosed—no clue where. Following him through the entrance led to a clean hallway.
“This is the participant dorm wing. It connects straight to the dorms and match waiting rooms, so you won’t run into other participants.”
They isolated contestants until the first meeting in the arena. Once in the dorm, no leaving until the match, and meals delivered.
“The facilities are luxury hotel-level, so you won’t be uncomfortable. There’s a phone linked directly to control—call anytime for needs.”
Our room was at the end of the hall. They’d asked during contract if we wanted separate rooms; we said together. We often crashed together in the one-room after drinking anyway—no issue sharing.
Now that we’d gone all the way physically, even less reason to separate.
“Not sure about your relationship, but lots of couples join, so privacy’s guaranteed. Some couples relieve tension physically, you know.”
He smiled meaningfully. Don’t worry, go ahead and fuck if you want. Of course, I wasn’t naive enough to buy it.
‘They’ll record it somehow.’
Fucking in the dorm without precautions would gift them ‘B-Rank Hunter Amateur Leak.mp4’. No intention of entertaining trash like that.
“We won’t see each other after this. Last chance—any questions? I’ll answer within what I know.”
“No HFC questions, right?”
“Correct. Contract says no to those.”
Just win the tournament by crushing whoever’s in it and claim the prize. Why they run HFC, VIP connections, prize creation? Not curious.
Dealing with the church would reveal it eventually.
“We’re good. Thanks for the work.”
The promoter bowed and left us in the room.
“Wow, this place is nicer than I thought.”
The promoter wasn’t exaggerating about hotel-level. Clean interior, king-size bed, shower room with a jacuzzi—better than most five-star hotel rooms.
As Nayeong looked around, twisting her body, she said,
“Sex here would be bad, right? What if there’s hidden cams?”
Same thought. No cameras visible anywhere, but mini devices these days are tiny—can’t relax. Some spots looked suspicious, but couldn’t tear the place apart. They’d anticipate that in a setup like this.
“Sigh, one round and I’d sleep like a baby. What a waste.”
I whispered in her ear as I approached.
“Quiet. If there’s cams, audio’s recorded too. I’ve got a way—wait.”
Her eyes widened, then she nodded. I said it because a message had just popped up.
【Yin Energy Navigator Activated】
Yin energy flow detected. Positions of objects bearing yin energy traces are now displayed.
The Yin Energy Navigator from my inventory had activated. Meaning devices with yin energy traces were installed in this room. Gate magic stones contain yin energy, and processing them leaves traces.
The navigator pinpointed those traces.
Looking around, five spots glowed: ceiling corner, near the decorative shelf, by the mirror, bathroom wall. Something made from processed magic stones was there.
‘Undine, see the five glowing spots?’
｢Yeah. Gate energy. What is that?｣
‘Surveillance cameras made from processed magic stones. Way better performance than regular ones. Probably embedded in the walls from the start.’
They looked like plain walls. Hidden cams always give themselves away eventually, so this method. Spy while grabbing amateur porn as a bonus.
‘I’ll turn on the bathroom water. Slip into the walls and wreck them all.’
Even processed from magic stones, they’re still electronics. Submerge the parts, and they’re toast—even waterproof ones.
｢That do it?｣
‘Yes. Just disable them.’
Water from the sink split into streams, flowing up the walls. I told Nayeong to stay on the bed and pretended to wash my hands—no one would notice.
The water raced along the walls, infiltrating the targets. Moments later, the five lights dimmed and went out.
｢Locked them in water. Even if they work, it’ll just be foggy nothing.｣
Neutralized five hidden cams in seconds. Water damage means they’re fried, but even if not, only milky underwater footage.
“Okay to talk now. There were cams, but I trashed them all.”
I said to Nayeong, sitting obediently on the bed.
“Really? So we can do it?”
“Yeah.”
She didn’t even ask how. To her now, only mattered if sex was on or off. Just three days since losing virginity, and she’d turned full sex machine.
Diving in without a shower, eyes already glazed. Better do one quick round, then shower together. Starting, of course, with my favorite doggy style.
